What Do You See When You Turn Out the Light?

Feeling much better today! A long hot bath and a night's rest have put me back to pretty much normal shape.

So, today I am going to hook up the PS2 and finally experience this Metal Gear thing. ;) Actually, technically I'm already familiar with Metal Gear, as the original NES games were my favorites when I was young and NES was considered the most awesome thing ever. I couldn't even remember what these games were until I was describing what I could remember and someone recognized them. On looking at screenshots of the original games, I was certain of it. These were the games I'd played over and over again after school.

But as for the new ones...well...I know nothing other than what I've learned through RPing at [livejournal.com profile] damned. :D But the ever awesome [livejournal.com profile] grayfoxinabox sent me a copy of Metal Gear 3! I'm terribly excited, despite how difficult the game looks. It will be an adventure!

If only there were money for pizza. Pizza and video games go together beautifully. Perhaps I can scrounge up enough change for something from Sonic later.... I'm ready for solid food today, and chicken sounds just right!

Oh! [livejournal.com profile] cacodaemonia! I got your card, thank you so much! It's lovely!

Speaking of cards, I've started doing mine. I've even got a batch to send out, as soon as I put stamps on them! I apologize in advance for my terrible hand writing.

I should grab some breakfast....

Huzzah for Metal Gear and solid foods!

Didn't you once title a blog with this same title? Ah well.

That reminds me, I must order my Christmas cards. I hope I will get them in time, or else I will be pissed.

Indeed!

Probably? I just take a lyric of whatever I'm listening to for my titles.

YES! YOU MUST!

You have a roomate who can walk to Frys and get a pizza! Or I can just wander over to my mom's office since I haven't seen her for a while. I know that she was supposed to bring us pizza next time she went shopping... and who knows, maybe I'll end up with little money to order something.

I should honestly stick with non-red sauce stuff, since I'm still on my period. :/ I'd be worried about upsetting my tummy more than it already was/is. But...well...we'll see. ;) I oftentimes eat things I shouldn't!

Well, if I end up with any money we could always order cheesy bread or garlic sticks, right? And if we get a large pizza you can always eat the leftovers when you feel better.

And to think the NES version was an inferior port, and the second one wasn't even canon!

The only thing is that by playing 3 first, a lot of the mysteries and questions left over from the first 2 games are answered. So when you get to Metal Gear Solid 1 and 2, some individuals you'll be expecting to be double-crossers, and certain groups won't be as shocking as they otherwise are, because you'll know why they are in control and what they've done to shape the in-game universe.
